I huff and put the phone back into my pocket as I ran up behind Joshua, as silent as a mouse but he turned at the last minute. Hurry it up, fatty.' He hung up before I could yell at him. I'll remember to go there to get mom flowers. 'Wanna meet up at the park? It's so pretty out today!' I waved at a passing neighbor which they returned with a nod, they were a florist. Two please!' I said and rang them up then left with them in a bag. 'I'm not allergic they just taste bad to me. 'I forget are you allergic to peanuts?' I ask Joshua. I walked in and was looking at a small cup of chocolates. I'm a big girl now, let's go out somewhere.' I suggested. 'It's my birthday man! I'm 18! Technically a grown up. I didn't turn, maybe just a morning jogger. I chuckled and started walking into town, I felt someone near me, behind me. The sun JUST came up.' He groaned and sounded awfully tired, and annoyed. I called my friend, my only friend, Joshua. I changed my clothes into something cute and headed out, taking my key and making sure the door was locked. I lay the soft and puffy warm covers over her, up to her chest.

She grumbles something and let's me lead her back into bed. You should get back to sleep, the bags are still there.' I softly say as I pat her hand. Which is about maybe 16 hours or 12? I don't know it's just so sad. 'ALICE!!' I jump out of my skin! I turn to see my mom, her eyes had heavy and dark circles, she was so sleep deprived or it looked like it but she slept as much as a baby. I make my way back home and step inside, quietly opening the door then closing it softly with a click. His deep voice scared the shit out of me! I breathe in and out, I need to calm down. He was the opera ghost! His mask was unmistakable. He had a white mask on and was wearing a black cloak like he was cold. 'Are you not leaving, yet?' I turn to see a masked man, he was standing just outside of the rays of light from the sun. 'Alright I am instantly gone.' I spoke aloud and reached for the door and pulled it open, easily. Simple and wise words read in large scribbled letters: It was adorned with a pretty red wax skull! Marvelous! I'm already scared out of my mind as I open it carefully and put the wax skull into my pocket, I'm a collector. I swiftly turn on my heel to see no one except a letter. I pick it up, then feel a presence flash by behind me. The door slams shut behind me and I jump, dropping my phone like an idiot. My heart was slowly calming and I gulped slightly. I slowed my breathe and turned on the flashlight on my phone. 'Alright, this is it.' I whispered to myself and pushed open the doors with some effort. I made it up the stairs, panting and hearing my heart in my ears. I actually ran all the way instead of walking. An old opera house that used to hold many operas until everyone abandoned the beautiful structure. I enjoyed the night so much that I walked nightly but tonight I would walk to the place where I loved to watch pass by, the Opera Populaire. It was late one night, I had decided to take a walk on my birthday.
